I felt free and therefore I was free.

I suddenly began to realize that everybody in America is a natural-born thief.

In my medicine cabinet, the winter fly has died of old age.

I have fallen in love with you, God. Take care of us all, one way or the other.

It made me think that everything was about to arrive - the moment when you know all and everything is decided forever.

I was having a wonderful time and the whole world opened up before me because I had no dreams.

I have been writing my heart out all my life, but only getting a living out of it now.... ... it's not a question of the merit of art, but a question of spontaneity and sincerity and joy I say. I would like everybody in the world to tell his full life confession and tell it his own way and then we'd have something to read in our old age.
